Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Lover
Don't tell me that I didn't have you
Lover
Don't tell me that I didn't have you
Didn't have you
[Verse 2]
Dream big, act small
Live short, die tall
Eyes wide, heart narrow
Looking deep, sounding shallow
Point left, turn right
Dreaming days, awake the night
Sing praise, block blame
Feel pride, run from shame
[Verse 3]
Lover
Don't tell me that I didn't have you
Didn't have you
Didn't have you
Didn't have you
[Verse 4]
Take all, give nothing
All false, deserve something
No rules, dark hunting
Power tools, a long lunchin'
Win weak, lose power
Spit sweet, suck sour
Stone symbols, paper planes
Cipralex runnin' through my big vein
[Verse 5]
Lover
Don't tell me that I didn't have you
Didn't have you
Didn't have you
Didn't have, lover
Don't tell me that I didn't have you
Didn't have you
Didn't have you
Didn't have you
[Verse 6]
Livin' in a dream, drownin' in the low
To everyone I love, I'm sorry I must go
Searchin' for the stream, the colors take me home
To everyone that I love, don't pretend that you don't know
[Verse 7]
Lover (Livin' in a dream)
Remember when ya lived inside my life
(To everyone I love) I could tell you why I need tonight
(Searching for the stream) Wanted you to know that I was healin'
(To everyone I love) Didn't receive the reasons I was leavin'
(Livin' in a dream) I didn't need a reason to believe
(To everyone I love) Only wanted you next to me
(Searchin' for the stream) I could take the pain that I received
(To everyone I love) As long as I could feel you next to me
